Egressive Drupal Hosting

Printer-friendly version

For help in changing the configuration of your current Egressive Hosting plan - like altering email details, passwords, etc., go to our Hosting Support page.

Egressive Drupal hosting for your domains, websites, and email needs is available on our Christchurch-based LAMP servers. Our hosting systems are particularly suited for running web applications based on the widely used PHP scripting language and using the MySQL database such as the many web applications Egressive develops, on the outstanding Drupal framework.

Egressive's Drupal Hosting plans are aimed at experienced Drupal developers. They provides a well tuned hosting plaform on which a competent Drupal developer can easily install Drupal, but it does not provide an installed and configured Drupal system for an end user. If you are not a Drupal developer but want an "out-of-the-box" Drupal environment, please contact us to discuss our Standard Drupal Package.

We do not attempt to compete on a cost basis with commodity hosting providers in the US - we focus on providing a personal service, backed by substantial technical expertise.
